The Red Sea rules the Red Wall
Three very short and very long weeks ago Keir Starmer, in his first interview after announcing his resignation, warned Andy Burnham that it wouldn’t be possible to spend any less time on diplomacy than he had. He told the BBC: “If you’re prime minister and you care what bills are going to be like in any household around the country, you have to care about finding a lasting solution to the situation in Ukraine, you have to care about what happens in the Strait of Hormuz. It’s not sensible to think you can just separate these two things out.” Despite that warning, Burnham’s focus has been entirely domestic — given he has no record of interest in foreign affairs, this is entirely unsurprising.
